You know that sphere advice you gave me is a good idea.... Vincent Waller said the same thing in an email to me yesterday!<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I put a line on the angles that I wanted the heads to go, and then made the construction of the head. But since I wasn't really sure about the angle of the head, I didn't erase that line, but I did erase the circles for the head's construction. Of course, I see now that I got the eyes totally wrong as a result.<BR/><BR/>I did that angle line on the head because it's something I saw John do in a video tutorial he did last year breaking down the construction of a shot from 'Heckling Hare'. But as you correctly pointed out, the angle was wrong.<BR/><BR/>All the more reason to make it right. Well, back to the ol' drawing board! :oP Thanks again!<BR/><BR/>- trevor.Trevor Thompsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08554109671909765241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794264332680014444.post-16612090132709400792009-01-16T08:57:00.000-08:002009-01-16T08:57:00.000-08:00I like the Uncle Eddie drawing!

Look for how different parts of the drawing relate to each other, for instance: What does the line look like that connects Porky's head to Bugs'? How far from the bottom rocker is the corner of the horse's nose? See how I drew a few lines around the rocking horse? That's to help me line them up correctly. I often hold my pencil up parallel to the screen, in order to judge what the lines and angles look like. I was trying to pay attention to the negative shapes, but I didn't get how they all related to each other, and that's what threw this off the most, as seen in JohnK's critique.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps, Spumkin!Kelly Toonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11011936536599240627noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6794264332680014444.post-74499159402211740912009-01-09T19:22:00.000-08:002009-01-09T19:22:00.000-08:00Kelly, how do you do the construction of the cover...Kelly, how do you do the construction of the covers?
